I agree. Roses' "transcript" would have been more interesting and beneficial without all of the EC.

I don't listen to Bob that much anymore, mainly because I find the chap quite boring. I did listen to him for about a half-hour yesterday and I did hear the "Mary" call. I don't recall Bob's alleged boorishness that Roses' EC alludes to.

As for the call, Mary seemed somewhat hesitant and not in full command of the facts that a caller should have at hand (particularly a caller with a $3 million net worth.) This always has frustrated Bob in the past, and I am sure it did so on this call. He was trying to extract some critical information from her to enable him to reach a conclusion and recommended course of action.

Bob spent a lot of time with her. I would estimate that she was on air for about 10 minutes, which is a "lifetime" on a talk radio show.

I think Bob gave her the best advice he could FOR HER PARTICULAR SITUATION. No, he did not recite the full chronology of the QQQQ trades, but that would not have been beneficial to Mary's question anyway.

My thought is that someone with a net worth of $3 million dollars considering purchase of a $800,000 vacation home should NOT consult a radio talk show host for a "Mary" type of question. They would be better served consulting these three people:
1) Their financial advisor
2) Their CPA
3) A real estate attorney
